Elizabeth Taylor and his famous phrases
“I've only slept with men I've been married to. How many women can declare it?"
"The problem with people without vices is that you can generally be sure they will have some pretty boring virtues "
"You realize who your true friends are when you are involved in a scandal "
"The problem isn't getting the man you want. The problem is wanting the man once you've got him! "
"I want to live, enjoy life as if every day were my last. Wouldn't that be nice? A life of last days "
"Have a glass of a good drink, put on a little lipstick, and you'll be ready for anything ”.
"Success is an excellent deodorant. Take away all previous bad smells ".
"My mother says that when I was born, I only opened my eyes after the eighth day, and that when I did, the first thing I saw was a wedding ring. They set me up ”.
"If someone is stupid enough to offer me a million dollars to play a part, I certainly won't be stupid enough to turn down. "
"As a young man, MGM was a great place to hang out. I like stardom, movies and everything that was part of the world of cinema, the only thing I didn't love doing was making movies. The lunch break at the bar was exciting, because everyone was there, from Judy Garland, Lana Turner, Spencer Tracy to Hedy Lamarr. There was also the sweet and lovely scent of makeup that women used, which has nothing to do with the lube that is used today. Every time Clark Gable walked into the room, my fork dropped from my hand. "
